A car is traveling at 24.0 m/s when the driver suddenly applies the brakes, causing the car to slow down with constant accelerat

ion. The car comes to a stop in a distance of 120 m. How fast was the car moving when it was 60.0 m past the point where the brakes were applied?

Answer:

17 m/s

Explanation:

Data

initial speed, Vi = 24 m/s

distance travelled, x = 120 m

final speed, Vf = 0 m/s

With help of the next Uniformly Accelerated Motion equation, we can compute car acceleration.

Vf² = Vi² + 2ax

a = Vf² - Vi²/(2x) 

a = 0² - 24²/(2*120) 

a = -2.4 m/s²

Now, the final speed is the unknown and the distance is 60 m:

Vf² = Vi² + 2ax

Vf = √(24² + 2*(-2.4)*60)

Vf = 17 m/s

Answer:

The answer to your question is : vf = 15.18 m/s

Explanation:

Data

vo = 24 m/s

d = 120 m

vf = ? when d = 60.0 m

Formula

              vf² = vo²  + 2ad

For d =100m

            a = (vf² - vo²) / 2d

            a = (0 -24²) / 2(100)

            a = -576/200

             a = 2.88 m/s²

Now, when d = 60

        vf² = (24)² - 2(2.88)(60)

        vf² = 576 - 345.6

        vf² = 230.4

        vf = 15.18 m/s

A package of aluminum foil contains 50. ft2 of foil, which weighs approximately 6.0 oz. Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. Wh
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

1.36 x 10^-3 cm

Explanation:

Area = 50 ft^2 = 46451.5 cm^2

mass = 6 oz = 170.097 g

density = 2.70 g/cm^3

Let t be the thickness of foil in cm.

mass = volume x density

mass = area x thickness x density

170.097 = 46451.5 x t x 2.70

t = 1.36 x 10^-3 cm

Thus, the thickness of aluminium foil is 1.36 x 10^-3 cm.

a stone is dropped from the top of 50 m high tower simultaneously another stone is thrown upward with a speed of 20 m/s . calcul
Darina [25.2K]
'H' = height at any time
'T' = time after both actions
'G' = acceleration of gravity
'S' = speed at the beginning of time
Let's call 'up' the positive direction.
Let's assume that the tossed stone is tossed from the ground, not from the tower.

For the stone dropped from the 50m tower:

H = +50 - (1/2) G T²

For the stone tossed upward from the ground:

H = +20T - (1/2) G T²

When the stones' paths cross, their <em>H</em>eights are equal.

50 - (1/2) G T² = 20T - (1/2) G T²

Wow !  Look at that !  Add (1/2) G T² to each side of that equation,
and all we have left is:

50 = 20T  Isn't that incredible ? ! ?

Divide each side by 20 :

<u>2.5 = T</u>

The stones meet in the air 2.5 seconds after the drop/toss.

I want to see something: 
What is their height, and what is the tossed stone doing, when they meet ?

Their height is  +50 - (1/2) G T² = 19.375 meters

The speed of the tossed stone is  +20 - (1/2) G T = +7.75 m/s ... still moving up.
I wanted to see whether the tossed stone had reached the peak of the toss,
and was falling when the dropped stone overtook it.  The answer is no ... the
dropped stone was still moving up at 7.75 m/s when it met the dropped one.
